Espanyol have made an approach to Real Murcia for striker Dani Aquino.

The teenager is one of the hottest young talents in Spain and Espanyol chief Paco Herrera held talks with his representatives this week.

Real Madrid are said to have first refusal on Aquino for the next two years, but that won't put off Espanyol from making an offer - though not at Murcia's £6 million valuation.
